Network Configuration
Aerospike Database's Network configuration stanza sets up critical network ports to be used by other nodes, application, and tools. The following table lists and describes ports used by Aerospike Database and XDR:
| Name | Default Port | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Service | 3000 | Application, Tools, and Remote XDR use the Service port for database operations and cluster state. |
| Fabric | 3001 | Intra-cluster communication port. Replica writes, migrations, and other node-to-node communications use the Fabric port. |
| Mesh Heartbeat | 3002 | Heartbeat protocol ports are used to form and maintain the cluster. (Only one heartbeat port may be configured.) |
| Multicast Heartbeat | 9918 | Heartbeat protocol ports are used to form and maintain the cluster. (Only one heartbeat port may be configured.) |
| Info | 3003 | Telnet port that implements a plain text protocol for administrators to issue info commands. For more information, see asinfo documentation. |
note
Ensure that all Application and XDR nodes can communicate to the service port on all Aerospike nodes. Also ensure that each node can communicate over the configured heartbeat and fabric ports.
note
For versions prior to 3.8, port 3004 is the default port to query the health state of the Cross-Datacenter Replication (XDR) client.
Where to Next?
- Configure service, fabric, and info sub-stanzas which defines what interface will be used for application to node communication.
- Configure heartbeat sub-stanza which defines what interface will be used for intracluster communications.
- (optional) Configure Rack Aware which enables Aerospike to support top-of-rack switch failure.
- Or return to Configure Page.
